lol sorry what i meant was does making them smaller = less smell? do you think you could run that with out a carbon scrubber?

Relatively speaking there is less smell, but you are still flowering plants so they are gonna smell.

Personally I wouldn't run a small CFL cab (nor any flowering area) without a scrubber.

The PBSD4 I grow, STINK! So without a scrubber, whatever room the grow is in would smell. That smell will probably slowly permeate your house, albeit at a low level, so if you say work all day, I could see you noticing the smell upon coming home from work.

looking good all!

---

here is one of my square foot scrog screens that doesnt qualify but hey it's a personal best for me so i thought i would show off/share
flowered as one of 4 screens under a 250 hps so this screen was done with 62.5 watts (organic - 3 gallon pot)
Dr Atomic NL flowered for 10 weeks - dry weight was 100 grams exactly
- which gives 1.6 grams/watt.

Sugar trim from all five plants combined

I was worried I was going to end up with a lot less bud because of the lower number of plants, but I must say I am pleasantly surprised by the results so far.

The last round with 115w cfl only yielded 94.79g wet. To see a total of 144.55g wet this round is very nice!

My cab seems to qualify for this contest. I don't have it dialed in yet but I plan on filling it up on the next go round. I should have the 100w cmh in it by then too.
